Mixed Ages

Child development researchers recommend mixed-age groups because it fosters natural, family-style learning. Younger children enjoy watching and imitating the older ones in a Music Together® ® class, older children learn by leading the younger ones, and adults are happy because the children in the family can go to classes together. Each child participates at his or her own level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, watching, or exploring musical instruments. The class provides for a variety of adult-child activities that are fun and offer new ways to play musically at home.
